Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to fully aligned via structures and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: a plurality of minimum ground rule conductive structures formed in a dielectric material each of which comprises a recessed conductive material therein; at least one conductive structure formed in the dielectric material which is wider than the plurality of minimum ground rule conductive structures; an etch stop layer over a surface of the dielectric layer with openings to expose the conductive material of the least one conductive structure and the recessed conductive material of a selected minimum ground rule conductive structure; and an upper conductive material fully aligned with and in direct electrical contact with the at least one conductive structure and the selected minimum ground rule conductive structure, through the openings of the etch stop layer.
